For those out there that may have problems.
How does this affect me If i have the permanent kill Switch enabled. Will this still cut Internet connection if vpn Connection is lost?
Always ran my VPN on my router alongside PiHole/Unbound……
Microsoft really are screwing thing ups with Windows 11, good job Valve are upping the anti with Linux….
How do these problems manifest?
Pretty sure I have the update but everything was running fine. Wondering what I need to look out for
Full-time Linux it is for now, then.
Hmmm I dunno. I’ve got the update installed and haven’t had an issue with my VPN at all. Also, the article talks about Microsoft history of not playing nice with VPNs, but I’ve been on Nord or proton for a long time and haven’t had an interruption. Assuming it’s going to be a special combination drivers/applications in conjunction with the update that causes it to manifest. The worst to track down. I don’t envy MS. It’s not easy.
Is this just for vpns like proton, nord, pia? Or does it affect corporate vpns using hardware firewalls as well?
Is it connected to torrents leak even with killswitch on?
Are there ProtonVPN users who can for sure say having issues due to this bug?
Can’t find any details on the exact Windows issue in this. I am assuming this affects the Windows build-in VPN, however, Proton comes with it’s own bundled Wireguard en OpenVPN services.
can not even login without using another vpn right now
not sure if there are any fix for this
I recently moved to Linux, but for those on Windows I wonder if this also breaks WSL2. Could you still use a VPN via a WSL2 Linux install?
Is it update KB5034441?
I have installed Windows Update KB5036892 which supposedly breaks VPNs on Windows 10. I have had zero problems since this update was installed.
Highly doubtful that any consumer user (non-enterprise) is affected by this security update. Only l2tp/ipsec VPNs that businesses use.
“Note this is only Microsoft based vpn connections impacted, not consumer based vpns.”
“I have not seen reports of consumer vpns having issues.”

does this cause couldn’t login to vpn at all right now
even though could login a few days ago
didn’t have KB5036893 only recent update was servicing stack 19041 1704
Maybe time for Linux?
Good thing I ain’t using Windows
I’m on windows 10 (64) and run the WireGuard native app,it’s connected24/7with no issues has of yet …and I’m all updated
yeah my vpn not working right i have uninstalled the update but it did not fix it idk what to do
I was having trouble with Plex remote access while split tunneling through Proton. Tried a half dozen different things to try and fix the issue and turns out it might have been this update. Uninstalled it and now remote access is working fine.
